YOU almost had to pick which day to play golf last week as we had five days of competition. It started on Monday with 16 ladies playing the Veteran’s competition at Mansfield. Anne Blampied certainly came to play as she had the top score of both ladies and men with a great 39 points. Sam Bailey was third with 36 plus a nearest the pin on 3rd. The ladies team event was won by Lyn Poulson, Jenny Koraus and Wendy Hunt. It was great to see Pam Abbott win the Tuesday Stableford with a lovely 20 points from Kylie Egan 14 and visitor Helen Heil 13. Kylie also had the nearest the pin. Wednesday was a two person Ambrose. I believe we created a record with a fantastic 40 ladies playing on the day. It was great to see so many of our newish players in the field. Shelley Lakin and Sam Bailey combined well to win with 66.75, followed by Kylie Egan and Lorraine Cullen 67.5, Linda Terry and Julie Lillie 69, Sandra Lording and Linda Brook 69.25 and Nicki Cooper and Glenis Skinner 70.25. Nearest the pins were shared around by Linda Brook, Kylie Egan, Heather Anderson, Linda Terry and Sandra Lording. The special putting competition was won by Linda Brook and Lyn Poulson, both finding the hole and Lesley Anderson won the chipping. Thursday was a small field for Stableford. Shirley Nolan won with 17 points from Pam Abbott 16 on a countback to Colleen Leeds. Finally on Saturday 20 ladies played another Stableford competition. Anne Blampied almost equalled her 39 points on Monday by winning with 38 points. Shelly Comerford second with 36 and Sue Parsons 35 on a countback. Line balls to Sheryl Sargent 35, Linda Brook 34, Marg Knapp 33 on a countback to Millie Cumming. Nearest the pins to Glenis Skinner, Shelly Comerford, Shelley Lakin and Sue Parsons. Good hitting.
